Based on so many questions about SC430 wheels and spacing can everyone who wants to post the following:

1. Front Rim Diameter, Width, and Offset
2. Front Tire Dimensions
3. Front Wheel Modifications Needed

4. Rear Rim Diameter, Width, and Offset
5. Rear Tire Dimensions
6. Rear Wheel Modifications Needed

7. Picture of your setup that exhibits the offset of both wheels

Please keep chit chat to a minimum so we can keep the actual details of everyone's setup at the top.

SC430 wheel offset

Thank you. Were any steering or wheel alignment modifications required as a result of the track becoming wider and the scrub radius moving toward the inner part of the tyres?

...this isn't my vehicle,but I wouldn't think there were any issues. The thing you will have to pay attention to is the torque specs for the spacers, if they aren't torqued correctly or the same for each lug, you may experience a vibration. The same feel, as if the tire wasn't balanced correctly

Thank you very much. I think I will be going down the path of wheels with a lower offset, although in Australia we are limited to changing track width to 1 inch. I have left a message for Lexus Sydney to see if the 2006-2010 wheels have a lesser offset to those on my 2004. Otherwise I will have to go aftermarket. Thanks again. Much appreciated.
